DIY had a couple of shows on home renovation on at the same time last night. I started switching back and forth during the shoot-out commercials, but ended up watching DIY and switching to the shoot-out during DIY's commercials. Sure wish the sprints had been on.

Haha thanks Aero...I'm actually headed to Cowtown, Manzy, PBR@Glendale, Vegas, and Perris during February. Then we've got that DMS Driver Challenge the week after and I'll cap that off either with the Outlaws at Watsonville or maybe, possibly the UNC-Duke game! :wink

Looks like my next chance for wings will be sometime in April (Eldora or Haubstadt, likely) if I don't make it to Watsonville next month...

They ruined Bristol when they changed the track to create two groves. The bump and run went on 10X a lap with people trying to work their way to the front. At least 20 drivers every race walked away from there mad. It was good stuff though.

Uh, I wasn't referring to the two abreast as a Texas restart. What I was referring to was the leader out front, and then the rest two abreast. Hell, we used to restart the supers two abreast at Hangtown Speedway back in the seventies. And race to the yellow. As I recall, the only track in the area using the "Texas Restart" style was Stockton 99 for their Late Model Sportsman and Hobby Stock races.
